Abstract

A method of processing a signal is disclosed. The method comprises generating a digital signal, converting the digital signal to an analog signal, and generating an amplified analog signal having distortions. The method further comprises converting the amplified analog signal to a feedback digital signal at a sample rate and updating a model of the distortions based on the feedback digital signal.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO OTHER APPLICATIONS [0001] This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60 / 556,658 (Attorney Docket No. OPTIP009+) entitled POWER AMPLIFIER LINEARIZING SYSTEM filed Mar. 25, 2004, which is incorporated herein by reference for all purposes.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] In designing a power amplifier, a number of factors need to be balanced against each other including specifications like linearity, high efficiency, low cost, or high power. For example, a Doherty-type power amplifier, as described in LUMPED ELEMENT BASED DOHERTY POWER AMPLIFIER TOPOLOGY IN CMOS PROCESS, by Tongchoi et. al. in IEEE Int. Symp. Circuits and Systems, May 2003, pp. 445-448 which is incorporated herein by reference for all purposes, may provide power efficiency at low cost, but may have nonlinearity. Improved linearity can be achieved using active compensation of the amplifier, where a measurement is made of the difference between the actual output of th...
